I did not have cable when it first ran 2002-2008 and watched it in 2012. I was quite frankly blown away. My wife did not watch then and we started on it a couple weeks back. It is just as good as I recalled and IMO sets the high-water mark for police procedurals.
The second point are the characters & actors portraying them. No one seems like a cut-out jammed in as a plot device. Everyone from major to minor character is well written & acted. If anything you feel like you are watching real life and people for better or worse.
In capsule, it's about a murder detective that discovers connections between his murder cases that may actually all be linked by drugs. Through some backdoor maneuvers an investigation is opened creating many enemies for him within the Baltimore police department. As the investigation grows, so does the scope with drug money reaching up & out of the street.
And then there is this, 5 seasons, 51 episodes, each at least 50 minutes, and some well in excess. Some seasons are better than others but all are good. Anyone asking what's worth watching I give this one highest recommendation. Its on HBO Now & Amazon Prime -
